More quietly, the administration is also facing challenging choices in the West Philippine Sea. This issue of Politika, wrapping up the quarter, provides an in-depth look at these topics and the priorities of the 17th Congress. The third quarter ended on an ambivalent note, with either no change or a noteworthy drop in President Duterte’s survey ratings. At the end of the third quarter, 80% told Pulse Asia that they approve of the President’s performance and 80% said that they trust him. These are a 2-point difference from his previous approval rating of 82% and a 1-point from his previous trust rating of 81%.
